Micro-Epsilon Group Fast Steering Mirror FSM3000-M20-A26/A1/S1

Fast Steering Mirrors are micro-mechatronic systems that are used for the fast and precise deflection of light or laser beams. These dynamic systems use an extremely flat mirror, which is moved by an actuator using two electromagnetic coils per tilting axis, as well as high-precision eddy current displacement sensors. The Fast Steering Mirror can be controlled extremely precisely in two axes. A central pivot point allows synchronous movement without play or wear. These tilting mirror systems are used for optical communication and for laser beam stabilization in the aerospace and defence sector, as well as in optical metrology and industrial applications. The Fast Steering Mirrors FSM3000 are compact, miniaturized tilting mirrors that are used for precise steering or targeted positioning of laser light. The FSM3000 is characterized by a large movement range of ±1.5° per tilting axis combined with a short response time, allowing dynamic applications to be solved with high precision. High-precision mirrors with excellent surface quality and high reflectivity also ensure virtually loss-free deflection of the light with low heating. The FSM3000 tilting mirror systems impress with their robustness, compact design and low weight. This makes them not only easy to integrate, but also extremely resilient, e.g. to withstand strong shocks and vibrations during rocket launches, even without a launch lock. The systems also operate extremely reliably in space or in a vacuum.
